FYI, my wife and I applied for Amex plats in July and got the account notated for the 100k bonus. Every time we've called they say only that it's "noted" but not that we can actually get the 100k; we need to call in 6-8 weeks after hitting the spend. But now, when I call MR, the automated message says we have zero MR points, and 75k pending. I don't know where 75k comes from -- it's "close but not quite" the 100k we are supposed to get -- but it's better than nothing I suppose! Now we just need to wait a few more weeks and then make sure the full 100k goes through...
